Overlord of the late Qin Dynasty

Chapter 216 Liu Ji Goes North ([-])

Taking a deep breath, Liu Ji said in a very embarrassed and helpless way: "Could it be that we have to be that lost dog?"

"Pei Gong! There is no way out now! I can only hope that Xiang Yu will give me time so that we can take down any city outside Sishui County as a foundation." Looking at Liu Ji's expression, he said with some shame .

"Hey! Forget it! Forget it!" Liu Ji sighed and waved his hands when he saw that Wang Xi and Shen Shiqi were both extremely ashamed. "Let's agree to Li Qi's conditions and ask him to send troops!"

"Pei Gong!" The generals were all ready to stop him.

Seeing the performance of the generals, Liu Ji was filled with pride.But reality did not allow him to agree with the idea of ​​the generals fighting to the death, so he waved his hands and said: "You don't have to say any more! Don't think about my family, but also think about the families of your brothers!"

"Besides, Xiang Yu's rule is the most stable and peaceful place in the whole world. If Sishui County can become Xiang Yu's rule, it will surely save the families of the brothers from living in fear. In this way, I, Liu Ji, can also feel at ease!" Liu Ji Consoling the generals, there is no lack of joy in the future of Sishui County in his words.But what he didn't know was that what was originally an unintentional remark made the loyalty of the generals even higher.

Qin army camp.

Zhang Ping received urgent documents from various counties in the south, and learned that Li Qi, a general of Xiang Yu stationed in the East China Sea, had led [-] troops to seize the land of the city.

"General Li Qi of the State of Chu led [-] troops to attack, and the eight counties of Xiaxiang, Qulu, Xu, Fuli, Qi, Zhi, Tong, and Zhuyi in the south all issued a letter of emergency. And now it has been confirmed that Xiaxiang, Qulu, Xu The six counties of Li County, Tong County, Fuli County, and Qixian County were captured by the army sent by Li Qi, and Zhuyi and Fuli County are now struggling and waiting for reinforcements! However, there are tens of thousands of Liu Ji in front of our army, so we must not move lightly. What can I do?" Looking at the generals in the tent, Zhang Ping was very helpless and asked after briefly talking about the contents of the document.

"General! How about asking the general to send reinforcements?" After Zhang Ping finished speaking, Wang Zhuang, the county guard, stood up and suggested.

"The general is now fighting with the coalition forces of Qi and Wei, and there are 40 troops in Qi and Wei. How can we divide the troops to come to the rescue? Wang Junwei's plan is not feasible!" Lieutenant General Xu Lin stood up and answered Wang Zhuang instead of Zhang Ping.

Xu Linqian defeated Ren Ao and others, and then was appointed by Zhang Ping as a deputy general, and his powers were greatly improved.It can be said that when Zhang Ping was not in the army, Wang Zhuang and the county Wei Leping had to obey Xu Lin's words!

After hearing Xu Lin's answer, Wang Zhuang knew that it would be impossible to ask for help, so he cupped his hands and sat down again.

For a while, the tent was very silent.

"General! It's better to recruit troops in Pengcheng, and then go to the two counties with the newly recruited soldiers. We don't want to defeat the invading enemy, but we want to defend the two counties to block the footsteps of the Chu army. Let our army have time to defeat Liu Jiyi first, and then It's not too late to lead troops south to fight the Chu army!" After a long time, the county captain Leping got up and cupped his hands.

What Le Ping said made Zhang Ping's eyes light up, and he immediately praised: "This plan is so fast!"

Being praised by Zhang Ping, Le Ping looked at Wang Zhuang provocatively.Although Le Ping and Wang Zhuang are at the same level, the county lieutenant is half a level behind the county guard.Le Ping himself looked down on Wang Zhuang as a literati, but because the enemy was taking care of the overall situation, he temporarily suppressed his dissatisfaction.Now receiving Zhang Ping's praise, Le Ping has the ambition to pull Wang Zhuang off his horse and replace him.

Following Le Ping's plan, Zhang Ping thought about it and said: "Since this plan is what Le Junwei thought, then you can go back to Pengcheng to recruit troops and then lead your troops to the south to stop the Chu army. Du Wei Gao He is the deputy general, and the school captain Li Deng They are all transferred to your tent and obey your command!"

When Le Ping heard Zhang Ping's assignment, he was very happy to accept the order.

Seeing that Le Ping is valued by Zhang Ping, Wang Zhuang felt a little jealous.But he knows that now is not the time to compete with Leping for credit, but to work together to repel the enemies who will commit crimes in the future!

Le Ping took Gao He and Li Deng with him, and led [-] cavalry to head south to Pengcheng.

In a few days, Leping recruited more than [-] sergeants in Pengcheng.Dang even took Li Deng as the vanguard to lead [-] soldiers to go south to Fuli and Zhuyi, and he led more than [-] troops to go south to catch the strong men.

"General, please send troops! Pei Gong promised to withdraw from Sishui County after finding a place to stay." Wang Xi cupped his hands and said to Li Qi.

Originally, the order Li Qi received from Xiang Yu was that it would be best to drive Liu Ji out of Sishui County, but he had to restrict Liu Ji from developing eastward or southward.

Xiang Yu did this because he was afraid that Liu Ji would take the opportunity to go south and become Xiong Xin's reliance on the excuse of joining Chu.

"Pei Gong is worthy of being a hero!" Li Qi praised Liu Ji in front of Wang Xi, and then gave orders to Xiang Han who was beside him. "Lieutenant Xiang Du, you immediately lead your troops and horses to follow the king to the north. I will first defeat the Qin army entrenched in Fuli and Zhuyi, and then go north!"

As soon as Wang Xi heard that Li Qi was going west to defeat the Qin army in Fuli, he was about to speak.But I heard Li Qiyan say: "If you don't defeat the Qin army in Fuli Zhuyi first, you may be attacked by the enemy when you go north. Please rest assured, as long as the Qin army is defeated, you will go north without stopping! Besides, Captain Xiang is my young master in the East China Sea. Some mighty generals, their subordinates are also the elite of our Eastern Sea. With them, I believe that Zhang Ping will not dare to act rashly!"

Seeing that Li Qi's expression was not fake, Wang Xi bowed his hands and said: "I hope the general will go north quickly, and I and Pei Gong will wait for the general!"

"Don't worry, Master Wang! This general will do what he says, even if he can't completely defeat the Qin army. This general will also lead the army to the north and fight against Zhang Ping to determine the outcome!" Seeing that Wang Xi was still worried, Li Qi helped Qi Wang made a promise immediately.

Xiang Han commanded [-] troops and followed Wang Hu to go northward at full speed. On the way, Wang Xi knew that Xiang Han was a member of Xiang Yu's clan, but he despised Xiang Han a little in his heart.

Li Qi commanded [-] soldiers and horses to join Lingchang's headquarters, and then forced Leping to leave the city for a decisive battle.First Li Ji beheaded and killed Li Deng, and then the entire army attacked.He was caught off guard, and apart from thousands of veterans under Le Ping's command, there were many recruited young men.Seeing the majestic Chu army, they did not dare to fight and broke up.

Under the protection of Gao He, Le Ping fled the battlefield in a panic with less than [-] cavalry.

Leaving Lingchang with an army of 1 to attack Zhuyi and capture the fleeing Qin army, Li Qi led an army of [-] to go north.Among the [-] soldiers and horses, nearly [-] were the defeated soldiers of the Qin army.Although there is not much combat effectiveness, in order to deter Li Qi from the Qin army, he still organized these troops into the army.
